Hello again!
I would go through with Deed Pole. Why? I would do this because it will cause confusion on documents when he goes by "John Smith" when legally his name on his birth certificate is "John Jackson". It will cause stress and confusion for your son all through his life and for you too, as his #1 guardian.
Be firm in confronting the father about the name change. Do not let the situation get emotional, just tell him YOU are the number 1 guardian of your son and that you want him to have your name! If your relationship with him is rocky, why should your child have his last name!?!
I believe this name change is in you and your son's best interest.
Good Luck and if you have any more questions, feel free to ask me! ]
